Description

3 1/4"h x 4 7/8"w sepia tone photo of a framed picture of the Old Joy Chapel in Hollywood. The frame was heavy and elaborately decorated. I don't know if the image was a photograph or a drawing. The view is of the front gable end of a simple clapboard building, five steps above the ground. There was a four panel door set back a little in a narrow archway. Several feet above the door was a small round window and in the roof peak, a narrow rectangular louver. There were no other windows in the elevation. There was a V brace in the roof peak. There was a square, open bell tower capped by a witch's hat steeple with a lightning rod. There were trees on the sides and back of the building. A man in dark clothing stood in the yard in front of the building. A few gravestones were visible. ******************************************* Text on verso: in black fountain pen "Old Joy Chapel church, Hollywood Md." in pencil "person=Miley Jones" in black stamp ink "OCT 1 1951 Photograph by George H.
